I think that Nintendo has a problem appealing to the average teen audience.
For example, much of thier advertising does not occour on TV-slots and programs aimed at teens. Also, thier M-rated titles don't get enough publicity and advertisement, and as a result, a loot of teens think the GameCube is a kiddy console, espically compared to Microsoft's Xbox.
In fact, I know a lot of people who look down on the GameCube. These people were NES, SNES, Game Boy, and even N64 owners. But this generation, they've gone the way of Microsoft, fully supporting thier Xbox, but dissing the GCN.
Its odd, because it seems like Microsoft is making its Xbox look better by simply getting more informaton and advertising out to the public.
